    Hi,

    I've been looking for engine weights for a little while and nothing I've come across seems conclusive.

    I was wondering if anyone knew weights for a few of the common transplanted engines. For simplicity, and as I doubt there's a huge amount of variation, preferably knowing whether it's a bare weight or ready to bolt in and run :

    An 8v (Mk1/Mk2 GTI 8v for example)
    A KR/9A/ABF
    The good old 12v boat anchor

    And ideally, just to complete the picture:

    A 24v of some description
    A 1.8T
    And if anyone's feeling fancy, a TFSI

    I'm going to weigh a PB engine with a few minor ancillaries such as coolant outlets, as well as a VR (complete from sump to rocker minus any ancillaries) and an AUQ engine with and without ancillaries (bare, and the whole deal with mani's, turbo, intercooler, a handful of piping, etc) when I get the chance if anyone would be interested.

    Any information to save a job would be appreciated though as I'm sure a few people have already done this, so that'd be spot on.

    Thanks in advance :thumbup:
